agoncal Last week I gave 2 talks only in Forge and 2 talks on CDI using Forge
agoncal The interesting feedbacks I had were :
agoncal * not enough scaffolding strategy
agoncal As we've already talked, being able to scaffold different architecture is important
gastaldi yes
agoncal But also (and that was an interesting feedback) having more "business" scaffolding
gastaldi you mean scaffolding for a homegrown architecture?
gastaldi what do you mean?
agoncal Typically, you want to scaffold an app, you go faces-scaffold
agoncal But if you want an app with login, you could go faces-scaffold --with-login
agoncal (that's a common use case)
agoncal And the good old shopping cart came along :
agoncal faces-scaffold --with-shopping-cart
agoncal And of course :
gastaldi hm
agoncal faces-scaffold --with-shopping-cart --with-login
gastaldi this looks very specific
agoncal The idea is to be able to scaffold common use case (a bit like what you did with generating design patterns, but in a larger scale)
gastaldi interesting
gastaldi maybe we could split these use cases into scripts
gastaldi run shopping-cart-faces.sh
agoncal Yes. In fact what Forge does is generate a CRUD app based on Entities, but that could be just another option :
agoncal faces-scaffold --with-crud
agoncal Yes but how do we integrate it nicelly in the top menu bar ?
gastaldi or something like: faces-scaffold --featuring LOGIN, SHOPPING_CART, CRUD
agoncal Yes, "feature" is good naming
agoncal And features would be available for a specific scaffolding :
agoncal faces-scaffold --featuring LOGIN, SHOPPING_CART, CRUD
gastaldi and we can make that pluggable
agoncal rest-scaffold --featuring LOGIN, SECURITY
